Surgeon in the Raw - author Lt Col (R) David Jackson RAMC
As a young surgeon, David Jackson decided to walk away from his developing NHS hospital career to pursue challenge, travel and adventure with the British Army. Over the 17 years that followed, he got plenty of all three. He served on the surgical front line in Northern Ireland, the Falkland Islands and Bosnia and found himself dealing on a daily basis with the horrors and tragedies of war, looking after soldiers with appalling, sometimes fatal, injuries and using all the skills at his disposal to save lives and limbs. His unplanned return to the NHS and the reason for it is recounted, along with descriptions of the peacetime cases and situations he had to deal with. The fact that he never lost his sense of humour comes over very clearly in this colourful, moving and entertaining book. Warning: This memoir, written as it was at the time, contains strong language, images of violence and surgery and sexual themes.
